NASCA is proud to recognize Louisiana’s State Conservationist Kevin Norton as the recipient of NASCA’s Outstanding State Conservationist Award.

Kevin Norton was presented with the first annual Outstanding State Conservationist Award during the 2016 NACD Winter Meeting.

Kevin is the first recipient of this annual award that recognizes the NRCS State Conservationist that has made the greatest impact on locally-led conservation on a state-wide basis through excellence in service, dedication, cooperation, and partnership. Kevin has demonstrated this excellence not only in Louisiana, but regionally and nationally as well. His efforts have greatly benefited his agency, his peers, his partners, and the cooperators we serve. Kevin is a trusted friend to all with whom he works, and NASCA is pleased to recognize him as the 2015 Outstanding State Conservationist.
